Project description:MicroRNA expression levels were assessed during the canalicular phase of normal fetal lung development at the critical time, when the distal airway epithelium proliferates and differentiates. Precise miRNA regulation is important for proper pulmonary organogenesis, supporting the delicate balance between expansion of progenitor cells and their terminal differentiation. Microarray analyses could indicate the potential involvement of miRNAs important for human pulmonary hypoplasia. Two replicates of pooled RNA from two 18-20 week old fetal lung samples

Project description:Transport processes in the canalicular membrane are key elements in bile formation and are the driving force of the enterohepatic circulation of bile salts. The canalicular membrane is constantly exposed to the detergent action of bile salts. One potential element protecting the canalicular membrane from the high canalicular bile salt concentrations may be bile salt resistant microdomains, however additional factors are likely to play a role. To obtain insight into the molecular composition of the canalicular membrane, the proteome of highly purified rat canalicular membrane vesicles was determined. Isolated rat canalicular membrane vesicles were stripped from adhering proteins, deglycosylated and protease digested before shot gun proteomic analysis. Expression of individual candidates was studied by PCR, Western blotting and immunohistochemisty. A total of 2449 proteins were identified and 1282 were membrane or membrane associated proteins. About 50 % of the proteins identified here were absent from previously published liver proteomes. In addition to ATP8B1, four more P4-ATPases were identified. ATP8A1 and ATP9A shows expression specific to the canalicular membrane, ATP11C in the basolateral membrane and adjacent intracellular vesicles and ATP11A in an intracellular vesicular compartment partially colocalizing with RAB7A. This study helped to identify additional P4-ATPases from rat liver particularly in the canalicular membrane, previously not known to express in liver. These identified ATPases might be involved in transmembrane lipid homeostasis. The two newly identified P4-ATPases in the canalicular membrane may protect the canalicular membrane from the detergent action of bile salts.

Project description:Investigation into the effects of Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH) and subsequent treatment with tracheal occlusion (TO) on the pulmonary transcriptome. A diaphragm defect was created by surgical means in fetal rabbits. The surgical creation of diaphragmatic hernia (DH) allows for direct analysis of changes in pulmonary gene expression due to pulmonary hypoplasia, without the need for gene knockdown (as for KO mice) or use of teratogens (such as nitrofen). The subsequent treatment with tracheal occlusion (TO) was also investigated to determine the changes in gene expression due to forced lung growth in the prenatal phase. RNA-Seq analysis was performed on left lung samples from fetal rabbits. Samples were generated and analysed for DH (n=4), TO (n=6), and control lungs (n=4)

Project description:The Forkhead Box f1 (Foxf1) transcriptional factor (previously known as HFH-8 or Freac-1) is expressed in endothelial and smooth muscle cells in the embryonic and adult lung. To assess effects of Foxf1 during lung injury, we used CCl4 injury model. Foxf1+/- mice developed severe airway obstruction and bronchial edema, associated with increased numbers of pulmonary mast cells and increased mast cell degranulation following injury. Pulmonary inflammation in Foxf1+/- mice was associated with diminished expression of Foxf1, increased mast cell tryptase and increased expression of CXCL12, the latter being essential for mast cell migration and chemotaxis. Foxf1 haploinsufficiency caused pulmonary mastocytosis and enhanced pulmonary inflammation following chemically-induced lung injury, indicating an important role for Foxf1 in the pathogenesis of pulmonary inflammatory responses.

Project description:The toll-like receptors (TLRs) are important components of the respiratory epithelium host innate defense, enabling the airway surface to recognize and respond to a variety of insults in inhaled air. Based on the knowledge that smokers are more susceptible to pulmonary infection and the airway epithelium of smokers with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by bacterial colonization and acute exacerbation of airway infections, we assessed whether smoking alters the expression of TLRs in human small airway epithelium, the primary site of smoking-induced disease. Microarrays were used to survey the TLR family gene expression in small airway (10th-12th order) epithelium from healthy nonsmokers (n=60), healthy smokers (n=73) and smokers with COPD (n=36). Using the criteria of detection call of present in ≥50%, 6 of 10 TLRs (1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 8) were expressed. Compared to nonsmokers, the most strikingly changed gene is TLR5, which down-regulated in healthy smokers (1.4-fold decrease, p<10-13) and in smokers with COPD (1.6-fold, p<10-14). TaqMan RT-PCR confirmed these observations. Bronchial biopsies immunofluorescence showed that TLR5 protein was expressed mainly on the apical side of the human airway epithelium and decreased in healthy smokers and smokers with COPD. In vitro studies showed that the level of TLR5 downstream genes, IL-6 and IL-8 were highly induced in TLR5 high-expressing cells compared to TLR5 low-expressing cells after flagellin exposure. In the context that TLR5 functions to recognize pathogens and activate innate immune responses, the smoking-induced down-regulation of TLR5 likely contributes to smoking-related susceptibility to airway infection.

Project description:Extracellular vesicle (EV)-mediated intercellular communication significantly influences pulmonary cell health and disease outcomes, yet in vitro methods to investigate these pathophysiological mechanisms are limited. We hypothesize that organotypic models of the airway can be leveraged to investigate EV-mediated intercellular signaling, focusing on EV proteomic content as a case study. in this study, two in vitro airway culture models were evaluated using mass spectrometry-based proteomics: a tri-culture model consisting of alveolar epithelial, fibroblast, and lung microvascular endothelial cells and a co-culture model consisting of alveolar epithelial and fibroblast cells. EVs isolated from the tri-culture model showed enrichment for EV proteins regulating RNA-to-protein translation. EVs isolated from the co-culture model were enriched with EV biogenesis and extracellular matrix signaling proteins. These model-specific differences suggest that different pulmonary cell types uniquely affect EV composition and the biological pathways influenced by the EV proteome in recipient cells. These findings inform future study designs surrounding EV-related pulmonary disease pathogenesis and therapeutics.

Carbon tetrachloride (CCl4; Sigma, St Louis, MO) was dissolved in mineral oil at a 1:20 ratio v/v and a single intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of CCl4 (0.5 l of CCl4/ 1g of body weight) was administered to male Foxf1+/- mice or their wild type (WT) littermates as described.
